Addressing the evaluation process, Minister Bangarappa clarified the continuation of the grace marks system. “The grace marks policy from the Covid period will not be implemented. We are reverting to the original system, where students scoring a minimum of 175 marks across all subjects are eligible for grace marks,” he said. The passing threshold will also return to 35 marks, up from 25 during the Covid period.
In the case of SSLC last year, a total of 8.9 lakh students had registered for the Karnataka Board Class 10 exams. Of them, 4.5 lakh boys and 4.3 lakh girls participated. The overall pass percentage was 73.40 per cent, which was a decline from 2023’s 83.89 per cent and 2022’s 85.13 per cent. This was also a decline from the pre-pandemic years (2019) when the pass percentage was 73.70 per cent.
Last year, the Karnataka board Class 10 SSLC result was declared on May 9. As a result of the low pass percentage last year, the board had enhanced the normalisation by increasing the grade marks from 10 per cent to 20 per cent. The qualifying marks for the Karnataka SSLC exam were also reduced from 35 per cent to 25 per cent. A total of 78 schools across Karnataka recorded zero percent results of which three were in Bengaluru alone. In 2024, only 1 student secured 625 marks, compared to 2023, when four students were able to achieve the same score.
